The Light

love is ...

~~<3~~

I am the sunshine
the ray of your first light
that kisses your cheek
and gives you warmth in these cold days

I can enter even at your sealed room
can pass through your closed windows
to watch you there in peace
while holding the glass bird in your hand

I give you the torch,
the lamp that you need when the room goes dark
and the flame when something needs to be held
like holding a glass of  rain and a bottle of wind

You tell me that stars are not far
while oceans are just few steps ahead
That my warmth gives you that strength
to build the ladders and bridges we need

Yes, I am your light
and I will share my glow with you
Until the last beam that I have
Because being your light gives me life

For you are the ember
that ignites my light to spark
For you are who  I am
And together we will share this light.

~~<3~~

After reading this, i pondered what does light symbolize in this piece. Light, as a metaphor or symbol, is usually interconnected with spirituality but in this piece i see "the light" as a symbol of hope. Love may die but hope last until our lifetime... another meaningful piece.

[Dhaye]

Indeed. Without hope, even love will fade.
Thank you, gab.

Love the metaphors, the author knows his stuff. Thanks for finding this.
"For you are who I am," - great line right there. I will find a place for that if I have to write a new poem.

Thanks for publishing!

[Dhaye]
